There is a lot going on on the Love & Rockets front while Bauhaus starts up their European tour. Their new album, Lift, is being released by
Red Ant on October 13, and a few happenings in conjunction with the new disc coming out. If you order Lift through Tower Records online, they'll even throw in a free Love & Rockets poster with it.

SonicNet will be having a live chat with Love & Rockets on October 19th at 10 pm EST. You can join in the fun by downloading the required ichat plug-in. SonicNet is also having a contest to win an opportunity to fly to London, England to see Bauhaus at the Brixton Academy and also interview them for the SonicNet broadcast. All you have to do is give them some good questions you'd ask Love & Rockets.

Some of you may be curious about the new Bauhaus and their side projects' promotional sampler released on Beggars Banquet/Red Ant Entertainment. It's available through Best Buy (only in the United States) as a freebie when you purchase a copy of Lift or Crackle. There is a fairly limited supply - not over 10,000 CDs floating about!

Peter's new EP, Recall, will be available on October 27. It was co-produced by Peter and Sascha Konietzko, Bill Rieflin and Tim Skold of KMFDM. It includes:

* Roll Call-Recall
* Indigo Eyes '98
* Big Love Of A Tiny Fool
* Surrendered
* Big Love Of A Tiny Fool - (Acoustic)


There is a little surprise waiting for you at the end of the last track, listen and "play at maximum volume."

As mentioned before, the stellar performances of the New York concerts September 10 and 11 were recorded for an official live video that will be released in the near future. Although it is a live concert video, there are pre- and post-show interviews with the band and tour crew members. We'll keep you posted on the news of the video and live album in conjunction with the video!

Bauhaus have added a new song to their setlist: Iggy Pop's "The Passenger." This isn't the first time that the members have paid homage to the former Stooge frontman - Peter Murphy covered "Funtime" on the 1988 album Love Hysteria.

Most of the songs on the Resurrection tour setlists so far with the exception of "Severance" and "The Passenger" can also be found on the newly released Beggars Banquet compilation Crackle. This is digitally remastered, which means crisp and clear sound, so don't miss out on it!

Bauhaus is almost finished with the US part of their world tour, so if you haven't had a chance to catch them yet, there are still 10 more dates left to see.

Filling you in from Monday's news - six hours in the studio and a new song later, Bauhaus went into the studio to find out that there was new material to be had. The song, rather, a sketch of a song, was to see if new material could be developed but the band hasn't decided whether it will be polished up or not as an official recording. "Severance," a Dead Can Dance cover was also set down in the studio at the Chicago Recording Company.

The New York concerts (September 10 and 11) will be recorded for a live video which will be an official release. You can also watch the two New York shows from the safety of your own home through LiveConcerts.com. The shows begin at 9.30 EST.

The dates for the full European tour will be released shortly. After the tour, Love and Rockets will be promoting their new album, Lift, slated for an October release and Peter Murphy will be working on his new album - Recall, his new EP will be coming out in October.

If you haven't had a chance to watch Bauhaus in action on their Resurrection tour, you had the chance tonight to watch via the Rolling Stone cybercast on JamTV (
www.jamtv.com) live at their Chicago show at the Riviera Theatre! If you missed it, you'll be able to catch it again tomorrow night at 8:30 EST.

Just announced today - David Bowie will be celebrating his grand opening of his ISP provider Bowienet on August 31st by doing a webcast of various performers. He will select 2 songs from the Bauhaus cybercast to replay again! Bowie is a Bauhaus fan from way back, you'll remember that he asked Bauhaus to perform "Bela Lugosi's Dead" in the movie "The Hunger" from 1983. If you remember the credits rolling at the end of the movie, you would have caught Bauhaus credited as "The Disco Group in Club." Disco, indeed folks. This ain't disco, this is resurrection.
